    I found a version of this on Financial Post that linked the report, I think it’s a little bit misleading.

    Food Basics being so far down on the list was odd, turns out they were #3 in Ontario, but being branded Super C in Quebec (which was #2 on the National list) makes them two seperate stores. Not really fair. They also didn’t include Giant Tiger at all in the report, who might not be a juggernaught in the space but have way more locations and a bigger national presence than T&T, Longos, Farm Boy or Adonis who were included, and it’s not as if Basics has a meat counter or bakery either.

      Still Metro, if we’re going to separate it then it makes sense to continue to separate
